Lasagna Roll-Ups Florentine

Cannelloni alla Fiorentina sounds so much better. This recipe is a favorite of mine, but we don’t eat it that often due to the RICHNESS of it (and the fact that my husband is lactose intolerant – poor thing). It is HEAVY on creaminess and makes you melt into your chair it is so good. My daughter and I both agree that the world would be a sad place indeed – without ALFREDO sauce. The home-made Alfredo in this recipe is wonderful… and because it is meatless, even a vegetarian can enjoy it without guilt!

INGREDIENTS:

8 or 9 lasagna noodles, cooked as package directs (butter them afterwards to keep them from sticking

2 tblsp butter

1 tblsp flour

1.5 cups half & half

1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (no powdered stuff)

1/8 tsp pepper

1 15 oz container of ricotta cheese (I use lite)

1 10oz package frozen spinach (thawed and drained well)

1 cup (4oz) shredded mozzarella cheese

1 egg

salt and pepper to taste

chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:

Melt butter on med-low heat in medium saucepan, then stir in flour and smooth

Gradually add half and half cream and mix well

Stir in parmesan, pepper and nutmeg and heat through

Remove from heat or continue to stir on low/simmer – don’t let it burn on bottom
